Besides the front door, windows are one of the first things people see when looking at a house. Peeling windows make a house look run down and subjects them to damage from the elements. Exterior window painting protects frames and preserves your home. Use top quality primers and paints for the best results.
Why Exterior Window Painting is Important
Paint protects the window frame and sill from moisture, sun damage, and insects. Properly painted windows help reduce air leaks, improving overall energy efficiency of the home. A fresh coat of paint keeps the look and overall appearance of the home’s exterior looking new.
Paint protects the wood or metal window from decay and rot, extending its lifespan and reducing the need for costly repairs. Proper upkeep and regular maintenance tells guests and neighbors that your home is well maintained. Regularly inspect windows and repaint them as needed to maintain their function and appearance.
Vines are a Window’s Enemy
Vines are a home’s natural enemy. Don’t let them grow over and block the windows. The potential structural damage, reduced airflow and sunlight, increased pest risk, and blocked views are compelling reasons to avoid this exterior decorating option. Strike a balance between greenery and the functional integrity of your house to ensure a healthy, visually appealing home.
